Focused
Reaches deep tissues. Indicated for chronic knee degeneration, deep cartilage damage and tendons. Usually 4 to 6 sessions.
Treatments
A comprehensive plan for your knee, without surgery
Every plan is built after a clinical evaluation and combines the therapies your case actually needs. These are the pillars of CRNQ treatment.
Pillar 1
Non-surgical knee decompression
You lie down comfortably while your leg is secured to a motorized device. The machine applies gentle, intermittent cycles of traction and relaxation on the joint for 15 to 30 minutes.
That controlled separation between femur and tibia eases pressure on the cartilage and creates a vacuum effect inside the joint capsule, improving the flow of oxygen and nutrient-rich synovial fluid — the same principles applied for years in non-surgical spinal decompression.
Duration
15–30 min per session
Frequency
2–3 sessions per week
Typical plan
4–8 weeks depending on severity
Per-session cost
$1,300 MXN
We offer a prepaid package that significantly reduces the total cost — preferred by most of our patients. Pay-per-session is also available.
Pillar 2
Cold laser therapy
Cold laser therapy (also known as low-level laser) applies controlled light to the skin that penetrates deep into the joint, where it stimulates tissue repair and modulates pain signals. It is painless, non-invasive and very safe.
Reduces inflammation
Lowers inflammatory chemicals inside the joint, reducing swelling and stiffness.
Energizes the cell
Boosts cellular metabolism and supports tissue regeneration.
Eases pain
Triggers the release of endorphins, the body's natural pain relievers.
Duration
10–15 min per knee
Typical plan
12–24 sessions over 2 months
Cost
Included in your plan, no extra charge
Pillar 3
Therapeutic ultrasound
Therapeutic ultrasound is a non-invasive technique that delivers sound waves into the deep tissues of the knee. It increases local blood flow, relaxes musculature and reduces inflammation, helping manage chronic joint pain.
Continuous ultrasound
Generates deep heat in tissues to relax muscles and improve local circulation.
Pulsed ultrasound
Delivers mechanical energy intermittently to accelerate cell regeneration without heating.
Phonophoresis
Combines ultrasound with a topical anti-inflammatory medication for a stronger effect.
Pillar 4
Cranial Release Technique (TLC)
The whole nervous system — including the nerves running to the knee — is wrapped and protected by a membrane called the dura mater. When there are signs of cranial distortion, tension in that membrane can sustain pain even with a solid joint treatment.
Our Cranial Release Technique (TLC) is a fast, painless and harmless procedure that releases that tension. We add it to the decompression treatment so patients recover faster and feel better sooner.

Focused shock wave therapy
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive outpatient procedure that uses high-energy acoustic waves — not electrical shocks — to stimulate the repair of tendons and joints. It boosts blood flow, activates cellular repair and breaks down scar tissue and calcifications.
Radial
Works on more superficial tissue. Useful for general musculoskeletal pain but less effective for deep cartilage or joint problems.
At CRNQ we are preparing the investment in a focused shock wave system — the superior version — to add to our protocol. We'll let you know when it's available.
Active reinforcement
Physical therapy for the degenerative knee
For chronic conditions like osteoarthritis, we complement decompression with a 12–24 week physical therapy program that reduces joint stress, controls pain and improves mobility. It is the first-line non-surgical intervention.
Targeted strengthening
Quadriceps, hamstrings and glutes to absorb impact and offload the cartilage.
Mobility and flexibility
Restores range of motion and prevents compensatory patterns that lead to hip or back pain.
Manual therapy
Patellar mobilization and soft-tissue work to reduce stiffness and muscle tension.
Neuromuscular training
Balance and proprioception work to reduce falls and increase joint stability.
Education & self-care
Strategies for low-impact activity, bracing, flare-up management and relapse prevention.
Clinical follow-up
Weekly check-ins to adjust the plan as you progress.
We design a plan tailored to your knee
On your first visit we evaluate your case in depth and define which combination of therapies you need. No generic packages — only the protocol your knee requires.
